In fact, if he wants to go full Einstein, perhaps he can offer specific things that would utterly disconfirm his theory if they came to light.
I don't remember Einstein selling his ideas in a movie he made over which he enjoyed full editorial control and that he marketed to an audience predisposed to accepting his conclusions because it stroked their need for validation on something they already believed because their holy book said so.
please Einnie, did something far worse, He sold himself to governmental propaganda to help prop up the sale of war bonds and ultimately pushed the US to develop the first atomic bomb. Einnie used his access to the media to push whatever he passionately believed in. This is not any different that what has happened here with this movie.
Wow, I had no idea Mahoney was in the business of lending his assistance to help win a world war against Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. Shit, he is admirable, isn't he, Snowflake? I can see why you wouldn't see any difference between Einstein's advocacy of the Allies winning the war and Mahoney's pandering to people like you. There's no difference whatsoever.

Do you live near some place where lead concentrates are perhaps leeching into the soil and affecting the groundwater?
Regardless of your idiotic response, my point stands. If Mahoney is in possession of a revolutionary way of viewing ancient history, he should have submitted his ideas to peer review by experts, not cobbled together some film to be watched by a bunch of evangelical yokels.
